Please help... Custom database input works in preview - not in published

Goal: Connect text boxes to database from custom registration to automatically show the users last name and number choice.

Problem: I have connected the database to the page and it works correctly in preview mode (using sandbox manual inputs), but it doesn’t work in published mode. If I pull the last name from the PrivateMembersData wix default database, this works on the published page, but I also need the number and other inputs from the registration. I have checked the database permissions and I don’t think this is the issue (saw this on a lot of other forums - it is on read only on the targeted page and it’s only visible in reading by the author)

What Have I done?

  • I have created a custom registration connected to the Wix CRM and a database to pull information needed from the sign up page (last name, number, etc.) - SEE CODE BELOW

  • This code isn’t pulling the same ID as the private members data that wix pulls and I think this could be the issue - it also doesn’t auto populate an owner ID - could also be the issue

Registration Code:

import wixUsers from ‘wix-users’ ;
import wixLocation from ‘wix-location’ ;
import wixWindow from ‘wix-window’ ;
import wixData from ‘wix-data’ ;
let registration;

$w.onReady( function () {

$w( “#forgotPassword” ).onClick((event) => {

wixUsers.promptForgotPassword()
.then(() => {
//
})
. catch ((err) => {
let errorMsg = err;
});
});

if (wixUsers.currentUser.loggedIn) {
wixLocation.to( “/home” ); //Change the URL ending to the page you want to redirect the user if they are already logged in
}

$w( “#registrationButton” ).onClick((event) => {
console.log( “Button was clicked” ); //You can change the text of this line or delete it
$w( ‘#errorMessage’ ).hide(); //We want to hide all error messages when the person attempts to register again
$w( ‘#emailExists’ ).hide(); //We want to hide all error messages when the person attempts to register again
if ($w( “#email” ).valid && $w( “#password” ).valid && $w( “#firstName” ).valid && $w( “#lastName” ).valid) {
let email = $w( “#email” ).value;
let password = $w( “#password” ).value;
let firstName = $w( “#firstName” ).value;
let lastName = $w( “#lastName” ).value;
let owner =
/*let position = $w(“#position”).value;
let type = $w(“#type”).value;
let jerseynumber = $w(“#jerseynumber”).value; */

wixUsers.register(email, password, {
contactInfo: {
“firstName” : firstName,
“lastName” : lastName,
/“position”: position,
“type”: type,
“jerseynumber”: jerseynumber
/
}
})
.then((result) => {
$w( “#dataset1” ).save()
.then((item) => {
wixLocation.to( “/thankyou” ); //Change the URL ending to the page you want to redirect the user after they successfully register
})
. catch ((err) => {
let errMsg = err;
});
})
. catch ((err) => {
let errorMsg = err;
console.log(err);
$w( ‘#emailExists’ ).show(); //This is were we prompt the message to show up again ONLY if there is an error
});
console.log( “Trying to register” ); //You can change the text of this line or delete it
} else {
$w( ‘#errorMessage’ ).show(); //This is were we prompt the message to show up again ONLY if there is an error
console.log( “Missing information” ); //You can change the text of this line or delete it
}

});

});

Problem is not completely clear. Are you trying to save other user inputs in a collection which is not the Private Members collection and associate them to the user so you can retrieve them at a later point?

Sorry for not being clear. I already have all the data saved that I need (this is collected when a member signs up). I now want to take that data and connect it to another page to customize the page (show their last name and jersey number they selected). I have connected the page correctly and it works in preview mode (using sandbox manual data), but it doesn’t work when I look at the published site. I know the database permissions are correct, but I think the issue is the privatememberdata ID and the ID created in my custom registration don’t match OR there is no owner ID in the registration that I create (these are just my guesses that I don’t know how to fix).
